About

Supertrain Records is proud to announce the premiere recording of Patrick Cassidy's The Mass in its organ version, performed by the esteemed choral ensemble Laude under the direction of David Harris, with organist Christoph Bull performing on The Great Organs of First Congregational Church of Los Angeles.

The Mass is one of the great musical forms along with the symphony and concerto. In the pantheon of composers, their mass settings are often appreciated among their greatest achievements. Patrick Cassidy’s contemplative, majestic, and peaceful work is the first symphonic setting of ‘The Latin Mass’ by an Irish composer. The Latin Mass evokes a universality transcending time and place. In the language of classical antiquity, it remains today an influential aspect of our civilization and culture.

Although first premiered in its choral/orchestral setting, Cassidy’s work was originally intended as a flexible piece, available to a wide range of performances through its choral/organ setting.
